Remembering Jeremiah

A life held close in memory

Jeremiah LaShae Quashawn Cannady (born August 17, 1995) was a young man from Aurora, Colorado, who meant a great deal to his family and community. Public notices surrounding his passing identify him by his full name and record him as 26 years old. Funeral-service information lists memorial gatherings and a celebration of life held in July 2022 at a Denver-area chapel, with interment at Mount Olivet Cemetery, indicating family and friends gathered to honor him.

While public records about Jeremiah’s everyday life are limited in news sources, the available notices make clear he was someone who mattered to people who cared enough to mark his life with a formal service and remembrance. Reports from local media and the funeral provider corroborate his name, age, and that his death occurred in June 2022. The circumstances reported by local news note that he was shot on the evening of June 20, 2022, and later died of his injuries; those facts are part of the public record but do not define the whole of who he was.

Because a family-published obituary text summarizing his life was not available on the funeral-provider page, this remembrance focuses on what is verifiable: Jeremiah’s full name, birth date, age, and that family and community members held services in his honor. Those gatherings — a visitation, a celebration of life, and interment — reflect the desire of loved ones to remember him, share stories, and find comfort together. Even when details about a person’s daily interests or work are not present in public notices, the presence of a service and guestbook entries signals that he was known, loved, and mourned by others.

Jeremiah’s life is honored here with restraint and respect. For those who knew him personally, memories, photographs, and stories are the most precious record. May this brief portrait acknowledge that Jeremiah was a real person whose years, relationships, and the care shown at his memorial matter. If you or your family wish to add further personal memories or corrections, those remembrances help give a fuller picture of Jeremiah’s life beyond the limited public record.
